Every year in Japan, publisher Shueisha holds an event called Jump Festa in celebration of its most popular properties in its weekly released manga volume. This year in the gaming section of the event, publisher Capcom will be bringing its upcoming title Marvel vs. Capcom 3 to play for the adoring masses.The crossover fighting title will be playable alongside other popular Capcom franchises such as
Monster Hunter Portable 3rd and
Monster Hunter Diary.
MvC3 will also get a stage event that will be held over both days of the show (Dec. 18th & 19th) which will run from 12:00 to 12:45 each day.
With the knowledge that 10 characters have still yet to be revealed for the fighter, anticipation is high that some of those will be unveiled at the Jump Festa stage event for the game. Accompanying the event will be stage events for other titles in Capcom's library such as the
Monster Hunter Portable 3rd special stage, a
Sengoku Basara 3 special stage (one day only), and a
Monster Hunter Diary "Let's Poogie Race" tournament. If your Japanese is good enough you can check out the full schedule
here.
We already know that the
Resident Evil 5 version of Jill Valentine and Shuma Gorath have been announced as DLC characters for
MvC3. Any predictions on who you want to see out of the remaining 10 characters to be revealed for the title? We at SPOnG still have a desire to play as Gene from obscure fighting title
God Hand and the symbiotic entity from the
Spiderman series of comics, Venom. Any thoughts, feel free to post them down below.
